Looking chic without upstaging the bride can be tricky, but this season’s embellishment trend is the perfect look for summer nuptials. Pieces emblazoned with textual additions will help you make an on-trend statement while still looking pretty and classic.

    Summer means one thing: weddings! While the invitations are flooding in, you’ll be thinking about what to wear. Looking chic without upstaging the bride can be tricky, but this season’s embellishment trend is the perfect look for summer nuptials. Pieces emblazoned with textual additions will help you make an on-trend statement while still looking pretty and classic. Very Exclusive, the new online destination to shop luxury fashion and beauty brands, has some gorgeous, detailed pieces that will take you from the wedding service to the reception in serious style.

    How gorgeous is By Malene Birger’s Lontras Sequin Top? If ever there was a reason to style it out in separates instead of a dress, this is it. For a look that’s guaranteed to catch the light (and the eye of the best man…), we’ll be pairing this beauty with ivory, wide-leg, tailored trousers.

    Something powder blue? Don’t mind if we do. A wedding is the perfect excuse to wear a pretty veil headband and this embellished REDValentino number goes hand-in-hand with chic occasion dressing.

    We might be dancing ’til dawn but that doesn’t mean we won’t be choosing to wear a gorgeous pair of statement heels. These T-Bar Chain Detail Sandals by Lola Cruz, which feature gold-toned embellishment and are finished in an elegant nude hue, are guaranteed to be our go-to summer event staples.
